Abstract
Description
本發明實施例是有關於一種三維積體電路結構。The embodiment of the invention relates to a three-dimensional integrated circuit structure.
近年來,由於各種電子元件(即,電晶體、二極體、電阻器、電容器等)的積體密度的持續改進,半導體行業已經歷了快速成長。積集密度的此種改進來自於最小特徵尺寸(minimum feature size)的一再減小,以允許更多的較小的元件能夠整合在一定的面積中。In recent years, the semiconductor industry has experienced rapid growth due to the continuous improvement in the bulk density of various electronic components (ie, transistors, diodes, resistors, capacitors, etc.). This improvement in accumulation density comes from repeated reductions in minimum feature size to allow more smaller components to be integrated into a certain area.
與先前的封裝體相比,這些較小的電子元件也需要利用較小面積的較小的封裝體。半導體封裝體的示例性類型包括四面扁平封裝(quad flat package,QFP)、針格陣列(pin grid array,PGA)、球格陣列(ball grid array,BGA)、覆晶技術(flip chip,FC)、三維積體電路(three dimensional integrated circuit,3DIC)、晶圓級封裝體(wafer level package,WLP)及疊層封裝體(package on package,PoP)裝置。一些三維積體電路是通過將晶片(chip)放置在半導體晶圓級上的晶片上方製備而成。由於堆疊晶片之間的內連線的長度減小,因此三維積體電路提供更高的積體密度及其他優點,例如更快的速度及更高的頻寬。然而,對於三維積體電路技術來說仍存在很多待處理的挑戰。Compared with previous packages, these smaller electronic components also require smaller packages with smaller areas. Exemplary types of semiconductor packages include quad flat package (QFP), pin grid array (PGA), ball grid array (BGA), flip chip (FC) , Three-dimensional integrated circuit (three dimensional integrated circuit, 3DIC), wafer level package (wafer level package, WLP) and stacked package (package on package, PoP) device. Some three-dimensional integrated circuits are prepared by placing chips on top of wafers on the semiconductor wafer level. As the length of interconnects between stacked wafers is reduced, three-dimensional integrated circuits provide higher integrated density and other advantages, such as faster speed and higher bandwidth. However, there are still many challenges to be solved for the three-dimensional integrated circuit technology.
本發明實施例提供一種三維積體電路結構,包括晶粒堆疊結構、金屬電路結構及保護結構。晶粒堆疊結構包括面對面接合在一起的第一晶粒與第二晶粒。金屬電路結構設置在第二晶粒的後側之上。保護結構設置在第二晶粒的後側內且分隔第二晶粒的多個基底穿孔中的一者與金屬電路結構。An embodiment of the present invention provides a three-dimensional integrated circuit structure, including a die stack structure, a metal circuit structure, and a protection structure.

The protective structure is disposed in the rear side of the second die and separates one of the plurality of substrate vias and the metal circuit structure that separates the second die.

參照圖1A,第一鈍化層110形成在第一內連結構104之上。第一鈍化層110覆蓋第一絕緣材料106和頂部金屬特徵108a及108b的一些部分。在一些實施例中,第一鈍化層110包括氧化矽、氮化矽、苯並環丁烯(benzocyclobutene,BCB)聚合物、聚醯亞胺(polyimide,PI)、聚苯並惡唑(polybenzoxazole,PBO)或它們的組合,且藉由例如旋塗、化學氣相沉積等合適的製程形成。將第一鈍化層110形成在第一內連結構104之上之後,第一晶粒100便已完成。如圖1A所示,第一晶粒100具有彼此相對的前側100a與後側100b。本文中,第一晶粒100的前側100a面朝上,而第一晶粒100的後側100b面朝下。在一些實施例中,第一晶粒100的前側100a被稱為主動表面。Referring to FIG. 1A, the
參照圖1A,在第一晶粒100的前側100a之上形成第一接合結構114。詳細來說,第一接合結構114包括第一接合介電層116和多個第一接合金屬層118及120。在一些實施例中,第一接合金屬層118及120形成在第一接合介電層116中。第一接合金屬層118包括通孔插塞118a及設置在通孔插塞118a之上的金屬特徵118b,而第一接合金屬層120包括通孔插塞120a及設置在通孔插塞120a之上的金屬特徵120b。如圖1A所示,通孔插塞118a貫穿第一鈍化層110且與第一金屬特徵108a連接,而通孔插塞120a貫穿第一鈍化層110且與第一金屬特徵108b連接。Referring to FIG. 1A, a
在一些實施例中,第一接合金屬層118及120可包括銅、銅合金、鎳、鋁、鎢、它們的組合。在一些實施例中,第一接合金屬層118及120可使用相同的材料且同時形成。在一些其他實施例中,第一接合金屬層118及120可使用不同的材料且依次形成。第一接合金屬層118及120可藉由下述方式形成:在第一接合介電層116中的溝渠及通孔開口(圖中未示出)中沉積導電材料,然後藉由平坦化製程(例如化學機械拋光製程)移除第一接合介電層116的頂表面之上的導電材料。在平坦化製程之後,第一接合介電層116的頂表面與第一接合金屬層118及120的頂表面實質上共面。In some embodiments, the first
參照圖1A,第二晶粒200與第二晶粒100類似。即,第二晶粒200包括第二半導體基底202、第二元件層203、第二內連結構204、第二絕緣材料206及第二鈍化層210。第二晶粒200的配置、材料及形成方法與第一晶粒100的配置、材料及形成方法類似。因此,這裡省略其細節。在一些實施例中,第二晶粒200的尺寸小於第一晶粒的100的尺寸。本文中,用語「尺寸(size)」是指長度、寬度或面積。舉例來說,如圖1A所示,第二晶粒200的長度小於第一晶粒100的長度。Referring to FIG. 1A, the
在一些實施例中,第一晶粒100及第二晶粒200中的一者可以是例如特殊應用積體電路(application-specific integrated circuit,ASIC)晶片、類比晶片、感測器晶片、無線及射頻晶片、調壓器晶片或記憶體晶片。在一些替代實施例中,第一晶粒100及第二晶粒200可包括相同的功能或不同的功能。圖1A所示的晶粒堆疊結構10是晶圓上晶片(chip-on-wafer,CoW)結構。舉例來說,第二晶粒200可以是晶粒(die),第一晶粒100可以是晶圓(wafer),且晶粒200設置在晶圓100之上。然而,本發明的實施例並不僅限於此。在其他實施例中,晶粒堆疊結構10包括晶片上晶片結構(chip-on-chip structure)、晶粒上晶粒結構(die-on-die structure)或它們的組合。In some embodiments, one of the
參照圖1A,在第二晶粒200的前側200a之上形成第二接合結構214。詳細來說,第二接合結構214包括第二接合介電層216及第二接合金屬層218。在一些實施例中,第二接合金屬層218形成在第二接合介電層216中。第二接合金屬層218包括通孔插塞218a及金屬特徵218b。如圖1A所示,通孔插塞218a貫穿第二鈍化層210且與第二內連結構204的第二金屬特徵208連接。金屬特徵218b藉由通孔插塞218a電連接到第二金屬特徵208。Referring to FIG. 1A, a
在一些實施例中,第二接合金屬層218可包括銅、銅合金、鎳、鋁、鎢、它們的組合。第二接合金屬層218可藉由下述方式形成:在第二接合介電層216中的溝渠及通孔開口(圖中未示出)中沉積導電材料,然後藉由平坦化製程(例如化學機械拋光製程)移除第二接合介電層216的頂表面之上的導電材料。在平坦化製程之後,第二接合介電層216的頂表面與第二接合金屬層218的頂表面實質上共面。In some embodiments, the second
參照圖1A,將第二晶粒200進一步上下顛倒且安裝到第一晶粒100上。詳細來說,第一晶粒100與第二晶粒200藉由第一接合結構114及第二接合結構214面對面(face-to-face)接合在一起。在一些實施例中,在將第二晶粒200接合到第一晶粒100之前,將第一接合結構114與第二接合結構214對齊,以使第二接合金屬層218可接合到第一接合金屬層118,且第一接合介電層116可接合到第二接合介電層216。在一些實施例中,第一接合結構114與第二接合結構214的對齊可藉由使用光學感測方法來實現。在實現對齊之後,第一接合結構114與第二接合結構214藉由混合接合法(hybrid bonding)接合在一起,以形成混合接合結構250。Referring to FIG. 1A, the
第一接合結構114與第二接合結構214藉由施加壓力及熱而混合接合在一起。應注意,混合接合法有關於至少兩種類型的接合法,包括金屬對金屬接合法及非金屬對非金屬接合法(例如介電質對介電質接合法或熔融接合法)。如圖1A所示,混合接合結構250包括藉由金屬對金屬接合法接合在一起的第一接合金屬層118與第二接合金屬層218以及藉由非金屬對非金屬接合法接合在一起的第一接合介電層116與第二接合介電層216。然而,本發明的實施例並不僅限於此。在其他實施例中,第一接合結構114與第二接合結構214可藉由其他接合法(例如熔融接合法(fusion bonding))接合在一起。The
另外,如圖1A所示,第二晶粒200還包括多個基底穿孔(through-substrate vias,TSV)205。在一些實施例中,基底穿孔205形成在第二半導體基底202中以電連接到第二內連結構204。在一些實施例中,基底穿孔205中的一者包括導電通孔及環繞導電通孔的側壁及底表面的襯層(圖中未示出)。導電通孔可包括銅、銅合金、鋁、鋁合金、Ta、TaN、Ti、TiN、CoW或它們的組合。襯層可包括介電材料,例如氧化矽。在一些實施例中,基底穿孔205在開始時不會穿透過第二半導體基底202,且基底穿孔205的底表面仍然被第二半導體基底202覆蓋。在後續的製程中,對第二半導體基底202的後表面202b進行薄化製程,以暴露出基底穿孔205的頂表面205s,且基底穿孔205可連接到其他元件。在一些實施例中,薄化製程可包括研磨製程或化學機械拋光(CMP)製程。In addition, as shown in FIG. 1A, the
在進行薄化製程之後,第二半導體基底202的後表面202b低於基底穿孔205的頂表面205s,以確保基底穿孔205能夠連接到待形成的金屬電路結構400(如圖1E所示)。在暴露出基底穿孔205的頂表面205s之後,在第二晶粒200之上形成氮化物層220(例如,氮化矽層)。氮化物層220共形地覆蓋被第二半導體基底202暴露出的基底穿孔205的表面、第二半導體基底202的後表面202b、第二晶粒200的側壁及未接合到第二接合結構214的第一接合結構114的頂表面。氧化物層222(例如,氧化矽層)共形地形成在氮化物層220之上。氮化物層224(例如,氮化矽層)共形地形成在氧化物層222之上。介電層226(例如,間隙填充介電層(gap-fill dielectric layer))形成在第一晶粒100之上且包封第二晶粒200。即,介電層226覆蓋第二晶粒200的側壁及第二半導體基底202的底表面202a。在一些實施例中,介電層226可包括氧化物(例如氧化矽)、氮化物(例如氮化矽)、氮氧化物(例如氮氧化矽)、模塑化合物、模塑底部填充膠(molding underfill)、樹脂(例如環氧樹脂)、它們的組合等。After the thinning process is performed, the
然後進行平坦化製程(或稱為第一平坦化製程)。在一些實施例中,平坦化製程是化學機械拋光製程。在進行平坦製程之後,移除過量的介電層226、過量的氮化物層224、過量的氧化物層222及過量的氮化物層220,以暴露出基底穿孔205的頂表面205s及剩餘氧化物層222的頂表面222t,如圖1A所示。剩餘氧化物層222在側向上包封基底穿孔205的一部分。剩餘介電層226則在側向上包封第二晶粒200,以分隔第二晶粒200與接合在第一晶粒100之上的另一晶粒(圖中未示出)。在進行平坦化製程之後,完成晶粒堆疊結構10。在這種情況下,剩餘氧化物層222的頂表面222t可稱為第二晶粒200的後側200b。在進行平坦化製程之後,第二晶粒200的後側200b、基底穿孔205的頂表面205s及剩餘介電層226的頂表面226t處於實質上相同的水平高度。本文中,當元件被闡述為「處於實質上相同的水平高度(at substantially the same level)」時,這些元件是在相同的層中形成實質上相同的高度,或者嵌置在相同的層中的相同的位置。在一些實施例中,處於實質上相同的水平高度的元件是使用相同的製程步驟且由相同的材料形成。在一些實施例中,處於實質上相同的水平高度的元件的頂部實質上共面。舉例來說,如圖1A所示,第二晶粒200的後側200b、基底穿孔205的頂表面205s以及剩餘介電層226的頂表面226t實質上共面。Then, a planarization process (or a first planarization process) is performed. In some embodiments, the planarization process is a chemical mechanical polishing process. After the planarization process, the
應注意,在進行平坦化製程(或稱為第一平坦化製程)或薄化製程之後,在第二晶粒200的後側200b中形成凹槽R1。凹槽R1可以是各種缺陷,例如裂縫(cracks)、尖銳形態(sharp morphology)、隆起(bulge)等。形成凹槽R1是因為一些不期望的顆粒可能會落在待研磨表面上,然後進行平坦化製程或薄化製程會損壞第二晶粒200的後側200b。如圖1A所示,凹槽R1沿著從第二晶粒200的後側200b朝混合接合結構250的方向D1延伸。凹槽R1使第二晶粒200的基底穿孔205b凹陷,以使得基底穿孔205b的頂表面205s’低於基底穿孔205a的頂表面205s。另外,基底穿孔205b的頂表面205s’具有不平坦表面或尖銳形態。相比之下,沒有受到缺陷的損壞的基底穿孔205a的頂表面205s具有光滑的表面或平整的表面。It should be noted that after a planarization process (or referred to as a first planarization process) or a thinning process, a groove R1 is formed in the
參照圖1B,在進行平坦化製程之後,在晶粒堆疊結構10之上形成共形層305。共形層305共形地覆蓋第二晶粒200的後側200b、基底穿孔205的頂表面205s及剩餘介電層226的頂表面226t。另外,共形層305也共形地且完全地覆蓋凹槽R1的表面(或基底穿孔205b的頂表面205s’),以防止在後續的圖案化期間出現電漿體蝕刻電弧放電(plasma etching arcing)。在一些實施例中,當檢測到凹槽R1時,可形成共形層305來覆蓋凹槽R1的表面。在一些替代實施例中,當凹槽R1太輕微而不能被檢測到時,仍可形成共形層305來覆蓋凹槽R1的表面。共形層305藉由例如原子層沉積(atomic layer deposition,ALD)製程形成。在一些實施例中,共形層305可包括氧化矽、氮化矽、氮氧化矽或它們的組合。在替代實施例中,共形層305可以是單層結構、雙層結構或多層結構。在其他實施例中,共形層305的厚度為500 Å到3500 Å。在本文中,所謂共形層可視為具有均勻厚度的層,且所述層具有小於50 Å(舉例來說,30 Å~ 50 Å)的厚度差。Referring to FIG. 1B, after the planarization process is performed, a
另外,在一些實施例中,在形成共形層305之前,在第二晶粒200上形成氮化物層304(例如,氮化矽層)。在一些實施例中,氮化物層304藉由合適的沉積製程(例如化學氣相沉積製程或原子層沉積製程)形成,且氮化物層304的厚度為300 Å到1000 Å。在替代實施例中,共形層305的厚度大於氮化物層304的厚度。在其他實施例中,氮化物層304與共形層305包括相同的材料或不同的材料。In addition, in some embodiments, before the
參照圖1C,進行化學氣相沉積製程以在共形層305之上形成填充層306。在一些實施例中,填充層306可包括氧化矽、氮化矽、氮氧化矽、或它們的組合。在其他實施例中,填充層306的厚度為5KÅ到30KÅ。由於共形層305具有比填充層306更好的階梯覆蓋性(step coverage),因此共形層305能夠完全覆蓋具有尖銳形態的凹槽R1的表面。在一些實施例中,共形層305與填充層306具有相同的材料或不同的材料。在一些替代實施例中,填充層306的厚度大於或等於共形層305的厚度。然而,本發明的實施例並不僅限於此。1C, a chemical vapor deposition process is performed to form a
在形成填充層306之後,在填充層306之上形成罩幕圖案307。在一些實施例中,罩幕圖案307包括光阻且藉由合適的製程(例如旋塗及微影製程)形成。在形成罩幕圖案307之後,藉由使用罩幕圖案307作為蝕刻罩幕來進行蝕刻製程,以移除填充層306、共形層305、氮化物層304、介電層226、氮化物層224、氧化物層222及氮化物層220的一些部分,從而形成開口308。如圖1C所示,開口308暴露出第一接合金屬層120。在形成開口308之後,移除罩幕圖案307。After the
參照圖1C及圖1D,形成導電材料(圖中未示出)以填充在開口308中,並使所述導電材料延伸以覆蓋填充層306。進行平坦化製程(或稱為第二平坦化製程),以移除導電材料、填充層306、共形層305及氮化物層304的一些部分並暴露出基底穿孔205的頂表面205s。在進行平坦化製程之後,介電層穿孔(through dielectric via,TDV)310形成在介電層226中,且保護結構300形成在第二晶粒200的後側200b中,如圖1D所示。介電層穿孔310形成在介電層226中,以電連接到第一接合金屬層120及待形成的金屬電路結構400(如圖1E所示)。1C and 1D, a conductive material (not shown) is formed to fill in the
參照圖1D,在一些實施例中,保護結構300包括填充在凹槽R1中的氮化物層304、共形層305及填充層306。共形層305形成在氮化物層304與填充層306之間。圖1D所示的保護結構300是三層結構,然而,本發明的實施例並不僅限於此。在其他實施例中,保護結構300可包括單層結構、雙層結構或多層(即,多於三層)結構。舉例來說,保護結構300可由僅共形層305製成,或僅氮化物層304與共形層305製成,或僅共形層305與填充層306製成。在進行平坦化製程之後,保護結構300的頂表面300t、第二晶粒200的後側200b、基底穿孔205的頂表面205s、介電層226的頂表面226t與介電層穿孔310的頂表面310t實質上共面。儘管圖1D中僅示出一個介電層穿孔310,但可形成多於一個介電層穿孔310。Referring to FIG. 1D, in some embodiments, the
參照圖1E,以後段(back-end-of-line,BEOL)製程在第二晶粒200的後側200b之上形成金屬電路結構400。在形成金屬電路結構400之後,三維積體電路結構1便已形成。詳細來說,在第二晶粒200的後側200b及介電層226的頂表面226t之上形成介電層402。藉由圖案化製程及合適的沉積製程(例如鍍覆製程)在介電層402中形成金屬特徵404。金屬特徵404電連接到未被保護結構300覆蓋的介電層穿孔310及基底穿孔205a。在一些實施例中,介電層402包括氧化矽、氮氧化矽、氮化矽、低介電常數(低k)材料或它們的組合。在一些替代實施例中,介電層402可以是單層或多層。在一些實施例中,金屬特徵404包括插塞及金屬線。插塞形成在兩條金屬線之間且與所述兩條金屬線連接。金屬特徵404可由鎢(W)、銅(Cu)、銅合金、鋁(Al)、鋁合金或它們的組合製成。Referring to FIG. 1E, a back-end-of-line (BEOL) process forms a
在形成金屬特徵404之後,形成鈍化層406以覆蓋介電層402並暴露出金屬特徵404的一部分。在一些實施例中,鈍化層406包括氧化矽、氮化矽、苯並環丁烯(BCB)聚合物、聚醯亞胺(PI)、聚苯並惡唑(PBO)或它們的組合且藉由合適的製程(例如旋塗、化學氣相沉積等)形成。在鈍化層406之上形成接合墊408,且接合墊408延伸以覆蓋金屬特徵404。接合墊408的材料不同於第一金屬特徵404的材料。在一些實施例中,接合墊408的材料比第一金屬特徵404的材料軟。在一些實施例中,接合墊408包括金屬材料,例如鋁、銅、鎳、金、銀、鎢或它們的組合。接合墊408可藉由下述方式形成:藉由合適的製程(例如電化學鍍覆製程、化學氣相沉積、原子層沉積(ALD)、物理氣相沉積等)來沉積金屬材料層,然後圖案化金屬材料層。After forming the
應注意,填充在凹槽R1中的保護結構300設置在第二晶粒200的基底穿孔205b與金屬電路結構400的金屬特徵404之間,以分隔或電隔離第二晶粒200的基底穿孔205b與金屬電路結構400的金屬特徵404。如圖1E所示,保護結構300完全覆蓋第二晶粒200的基底穿孔205b,因此,在金屬電路結構400的圖案化製程期間,具有尖銳形態的基底穿孔205b不會引起電漿體蝕刻電弧放電。也就是說,三維積體電路結構1的可靠性及良率相應地得到改善。另一方面,儘管基底穿孔205b與金屬電路結構400電隔離,但位於基底穿孔205b下方的第二元件層203的訊號還是能夠藉由其他基底穿孔(例如,基底穿孔205a)傳送到金屬電路結構400。儘管圖1E中僅示出兩個基底穿孔205a及205b,但可形成多於兩個基底穿孔205a及205b。也就是說,多於一個保護結構300完全覆蓋多於一個基底穿孔205b。It should be noted that the
圖2是根據第二實施例的三維積體電路結構的剖視圖。2 is a cross-sectional view of a three-dimensional integrated circuit structure according to a second embodiment.
參照圖2,第二實施例的三維積體電路結構2與圖1E所示第一實施例的三維積體電路結構1類似。它們之間的不同之處在於,三維積體電路結構2的保護結構300的數目是多個。保護結構300包括保護結構301及302。如圖2所示,保護結構301及302形成在第二半導體基底202之上且都沿著從第二晶粒200的後側200b朝混合接合結構250的方向D1延伸。保護結構301覆蓋第二晶粒200的基底穿孔205b,而保護結構302不覆蓋第二晶粒200的任何基底穿孔205(包括基底穿孔205a及205b)。具體來說,藉由平坦化製程或薄化製程得到的凹槽R2可形成在沒有形成任何基底穿孔205的區域中。共形層305沉積在凹槽R1及R2二者中以同時形成保護結構301及302。儘管圖1E僅示出兩個保護結構301及302,但可形成多於兩個保護結構301及302。Referring to FIG. 2, the three-dimensional

參照圖3,第三實施例的三維積體電路結構3與圖1E所示第一實施例的三維積體電路結構1類似。它們之間的不同之處在於,三維積體電路結構3包括從第二晶粒200的後側200b延伸到混合接合結構250中的保護結構303。在進行平坦化製程或薄化製程之後,形成凹槽R3。凹槽R3是深的且具有尖銳形態,因此共形層305能夠完全覆蓋凹槽R3及凹槽R1的不平坦及尖銳的表面以防止在金屬電路結構400的圖案化製程期間出現電漿體蝕刻電弧放電。在一些實施例中,保護結構303從第二晶粒200的後側200b延伸到位於第一晶粒100的第一接合結構114與第二晶粒200的第二接合結構214之間的界面15。3, the three-dimensional
